摘要:
A printer device driver system includes a relatively simplistic kernel mode device driver, KM.sub.-- DRIVER. KM.sub.-- DRIVER supplies limited functionality for basic Device Driver Interface, DDI, operations compatible with O/S kernel mode components. Separate reporting of graphics objects data and text data is made. The device driver is now divided into: a kernel mode analysis segment KM.sub.-- TEXT and a user mode text resolution generator UM.sub.-- TEXT segment. A user mode driver, UM.sub.-- DRIVER, is provided for receiving DDI coded instructions. In essence, UM.sub.-- TEXT subroutine ignores reported resolution and renders text in any resolution up to and including the highest possible resolution for the printer apparatus provided. A set of text data output from the application and O/S is reported to KM.sub.-- DRIVER in a fixed resolution. Text data is received with DDI text print requests. When a font is not recreatable, rendering is performed at the fixed resolution and output to the printer. When a font is recreatable, and the printer is capable of a rendering resolution greater than the reported resolution, the USER.sub.-- MODE is used to obtain a higher resolution rendering. DDI parameters are forwarded to UM.sub.-- TEXT subroutine. A memory construct is established. Next, a render resolution font is simulated by reverse mapping DDI parameters into a form suited to enhancement. Using the simulated font, a transformation from reported resolution to the higher density render resolution is applied. Render resolution formatted text is sent to the memory construct is substituted for reported resolution text and output to the printer.

A lift cord system for operating a retractable covering for architectural openings includes at least one cord loop which extends from a tassel through a fabric for the covering where it is slidably connected to the bottom rail for adjustment of the desired maximum spacing of the top rail and bottom rail and the orientation of the bottom rail relative to the top rail so the rails can be easily maintained in a parallel relationship. The cord loop is also anchored to the bottom rail at a separate location in a manner so as to fix the maximum separation between the top and bottom rails so the covering desirably fits the size of the architectural opening in which it is mounted. alternative embodiments include top down/bottom up coverings and coverings including a middle rail in addition to top and bottom rails.

A cutter tool for cutting the innermost cell of two concentric cells as found in cell-in-cell coverings for architectural openings includes an elongated main body with lateral side extensions defining a space into which an inner cell of a dual cell can pass. Within that space, cutting blades are positioned along opposite sides of the main body of the tool so that relative movement of the tool along a dual cell cuts the inner cell along opposite sides thereof without damaging an outer concentric cell so that an anchor bar can be positioned within the dual cell in engagement with the outer cell for connecting the outer cell to an upper rail or bottom rail of the covering.
摘要:
A window system has matching groups of window sashes which enable the creation of a great number of different window array patterns using modular, interchangeable sashes. The sashes have light-dividing mullions which intersect with the sash frame at a particular level or width point such that another sash when positioned adjacent to the sash will have its mullion or mullions positioned to continue the same mullion line through the two sashes. In preferred embodiments the sashes are all rectangular, some groups with linear mullions and some groups with diagonal, arcuate or elliptical mullions.
